Mouse cursor disappeared

I've put over 10 hours into the game without experiencing any issues, but today, while playing a mission, the mouse cursor suddenly disappeared and remained invisible even after restarting the game.

Disabling fullscreen brings it back, but then I have the Windows task bar at the bottom overlapping the game window, so that's not a solution. I also tried disabling the Fast Cursor option (not sure what it's supposed to do) in the settings, but nothing changed.

I'm playing the GOG version (patch 1.10.9A) on a Windows 7 64-bit PC.

I did a bit of testing and realized that the issue had to do with f.lux's software mouse cursor setting. It never caused any issues in other games, but Infested Planet doesn't seem to be able to handle it.

I've added a workaround for this in the new BETA patch. You can turn in on by selecting "testing" from the BETA tab in Steam game Properties.

To turn the workaround on, add "-plaincursor" to the launch options for the game.

Is this also available in the GOG version though?

Not at the moment, but when the BETA patch it released, it will be.

Hello! I have exactly the same issue, and -plaincursor did not solve it. Any idea?

PS: Once we know it is caused by f.lux, disabling it for fullscreen apps works, so don't spend too much time or sanity on that bug ;)
